Yes I did say that, I don't think that there's any kind of moderation in gambling, and yes it's difficult to be moderate about when you've been gambling consistently. Anything addicting, when you start doing it, you're already hooked, you just don't know it yet. The consistency doesn't have to daily, as long as there's a pattern and a habit, it's still an addiction.

Sure is not possible to moderate gambling but actually it cause for a great concern the rate at which most people are going to an extent to gamble, they are ready to sell there properties all in the name of gambling, what surprises me is there positive mindset no matter how many times they loss they are always positive they will win so it will be very difficult for someone like that to quit gambling because it entails determination and dicipline for an addicted gambler to quit gamble because the factors or force behind addiction is very strong that it always tries to pull you back whenever you want to quit.

In everything we are doing there should be self control and dicipline that is the only way you can eradicate addiction because so many people are having this challenge , they wish to quit but can't resist the addiction so truly is very hard for an addicted gambler to quit.

Only see gambling as a hobby and if you even find yourself having a good luck streak and pocketing some bucks, then be sure to enjoy them (or part of them) instead gambling it all away.

Yes, just think of gambling as a place of entertainment, where when we lose and lose money, just think of it as paying for the pleasure we get, so it's not too painful and thinking about the loss, but besides that, just think of it as paying for an expensive hobby, there's no problem as long as you have the mindset. we think of gambling as such rather than considering gambling as a source of income.

It certainly won't be possible to become a source of income, let alone provide a steady income, because hoping like that will not bring real achievements from gambling and will only destroy the gambler's hopes in the end, the mindset must remain positive like this because it will not enable us to become addicted. but if you occasionally feel a win, pull it out and enjoy it no matter how much money you lose. Grin

Well that's better and indeed everyone (gamblers) should also have this mindset my friend, where he should think that gambling is nothing more than an activity for fun and as a reward they will get a win if they are lucky. And with this kind of mindset I don't think they will suffer or get any pressure there because they themselves have accepted that this is just for fun, that's right, just think of the money they lose as payment for the fun they get there, it will be better than you keep thinking about losing and want to keep playing for victory to restore the defeat in the previous time, obviously that is very wrong.

Maybe those who think that gambling can be a place to earn income are only for those who are addicted and their brains are disturbed. let's discuss, how can you earn even consistently from a place that only relies on luck? obviously that is very silly, I don't understand what happened to you to think that way. You have to quickly change that mindset if you don't want to fall into a slump and lose all your assets. Don't overdo it, it will only add to the problem, so I think it's better from now on to change your mindset, it's just a matter of luck guys, nothing more than that.

Mate you're right, there's no moderation in gambling because people are too much in gambling and so also we have do many gambling platforms we cannot regulate them all, though government on thier own are trying to make some influence regarding this but yet there's no total victory in regulating every gambler, we are the ones that should take full responsibility to how we gamble and moderate ourselves in gambling.

It is true that we must be able to take responsibility for all the actions we have taken and this includes the gambling activities we are currently carrying out. And I am quite aware that doing this is very difficult. Gambling can make us forget and blind to everything. Sometimes, when someone is addicted to gambling, it is not uncommon for them to spend all day gambling and continue to make deposits without paying attention to the amount they spend to be able to gamble.
And indeed, if we don't try to overcome the negative impacts of gambling ourselves, then who will? And I am sure that if we have a strong determination to manage our finances and time then we will be able to control the gambling activities we do.

But in terms of gambling itself, better to take it as a source of entertainment and not to exceed from it.

That's a subjective matter, as there are people who can make a living through gambling. While they may be few in number, their existence does demonstrate that it's possible to make a living in gambling even though we are not the operators.

I guess, there is an adage that says "one man's food is a Poison to another". Alot of people derives joy in gambling, while some takes it as a daily way to earn and also loss their funds. Just because you've made up your mind to stop gambling don't mean that others should stop. Everyone has a choice in life. How you decide to live today will tell your tomorrow so everyone bears their own problems. The only problem that comes with gambling, is it's addiction as someone who never tried it before decides to try for the first time and then "boom, he cashs out a huge amount. You don't expect such person to stop gambling. This will make him or her, to try more even when he encounters losses.

Please let's correct that statement about taking gambling as a daily source of income because it's really an impossible journey for one to actually think that he or she can make daily earnings from a casino and thats why I don't ever support such statements. Although gambling is seen as different view for different individuals but the fact still remains that it can never generate income on a steady.

I also agree with you , we must never consider that gambling can be a source of income, because it is a way for us not to be up to date with what reality is, a casino cannot be a source of income, because there are many things to consider, the first is that the casino will always have the house advantage, which will make it win in the long term , the player should only take advantage of those Opportunities when they are winnable and they are few, and the casino should not be seen in That way, because it is first to have fun and secondly it is a very easy way to lose our money if you play in a very crazy way, anyone who thinks that the casino is a source of income is always not right in their head.

Indeed, with that kind of mindset you will always chase for a win, and from that you will be push to keep playing, leading you to a possible addiction, I think and maybe there are some who can make some money but more will lose and unable to control and become addicted, which what the casino really aiming, keep bringing more offers to allure gamblers to keep playing back.

As a source of income, it is generally for the casino owners and those who are working in favor of the house, referrals and other kind
of things that relate to casino.

But in terms of gambling itself, better to take it as a source of entertainment and not to exceed from it.

It's still for such reasons that some people lose self-control over gambling, thereby becoming addicted to gambling, but although some people gamble, they make some good wins and still pay some bills that the family needs. But yet, it doesn't justify the fact that gambling can be seen as a daily source of income because even the money that comes from winning a game is not usually fixed, and the gambler cannot decide if they will be able to win or lose every day and how much. Just like you said, DaNNy001, I also don't agree that gambling should not be seen as a source of income, because if it really was, then everyone would be doing it to make money and meet their daily needs and desires.

To be honest, I still dont quite understand how there is people around internet even suggesting gambling can be a reliable way to earn money (as a gambler). Gambling is a business and in order for a business to survive, it is supposed to be profitable, if there were a reliable way to gamble and defeat the house, then gambling would not be a business anymore and those big resorts and casinos in Las Vegas won't pay themselves.

Only see gambling as a hobby and if you even find yourself having a good luck streak and pocketing some bucks, then be sure to enjoy them (or part of them) instead gambling it all away.

According to the oxford dictionary, it defines addiction to be physically and mentally dependent on an activity or substance.

Now when someone is mentally and physically dependent on something, what do you think happens to that person on a daily basis?, such person will have to engage in that thing daily because that is their primary source of comfort and possibly, medication for stress..

When someone is addicted to gambling, consistent and daily gambling is a priority for them, even if the person have other activities he or she engages on, he or she will still make out time to gamble because, if he or she doesn't, he or she may likely no feel comfortable since he or she mentally depends on it for comfort.

When it comes to dependency, then you know your in a real problem. It’s such a situation because, you just wouldn’t find any other way to a survival or leave life without whatever you’ve built your life around.

Addiction is never an easy fight for just anyone and it takes an individual to wake himself or herself up and realize just how much he isn’t helping himself or herself to get out of the situation. It doesn’t matter what your told by someone but, what you tell yourself. What you get to realize about your situation because, it could only get worst.
You might find help to keep off the path but, it’s always going to start with you accepting that, it ain’t helping.

Why did you say that there is no moderation in gambling? Is it that you believe the nature of gambling it difficult that anyone that gambles cannot do so in moderation or you are doubting the ability of the gamblers to gamble in moderation?
I can say that I am a moderate gambler. Yes! I am . Do you know that I can place multiple bets on sports betting and days after the match, I will not remember to check the outcome. It is only when I want to bet again, maybe next weekend that I'll know if my portfolio added or reduced. How will you call my habit of gambling?

Yes I did say that, I don't think that there's any kind of moderation in gambling, and yes it's difficult to be moderate about when you've been gambling consistently. Anything addicting, when you start doing it, you're already hooked, you just don't know it yet. The consistency doesn't have to daily, as long as there's a pattern and a habit, it's still an addiction.

We know that the most common behavior or quality of a certain gambler specially addicted ones on which they are really that always be denying that they are really that addicted into gambling.They would really be

always be saying that they do play in moderation and control but seeing on what are the things that he's doing which it is a solid indicative sign that you are already addicted to it. If they are on the state of
sessions where they are playing or having that kind of habit then it might be in controlled manner but sooner or later you would really be falling into the category that you might really be that getting addicted with gambling if you cant really be able to changed up that behavior or having that control or moderation then for sure you would really be falling into this.,

Once addiction do overcome into yourself then getting out would really be the toughest thing to be done on which you cant really be able to get out easily unless if you are
a person who do have that strong will and control then its possible but not all does have this kind of behavior or characteristics.

That's why most irresponsible gamblers end up feeling sad and stressed. They want to make money every day by gambling, but that's really hard because humans have feelings.
it will be better to stop gambling and enjoy the life, little things in life. gambling puts your family's future at risk. Instead, try saving or investing your money.
gambling is like a coin toss - you can win or lose, but it's 50-50. Even if you win today, you'll probably lose tomorrow. and If you think you can beat the house, remember that many smarter and more experienced people have tried and failed

Yeah right, the next thing to happen is instead of quitting you will push to continue as your adrenaline already increase after several sessions of playing, control over yourself is what you need not easy but doable if you are really keen on working on it, those experienced gambler who can manage to limit their gambling activities mostly experience that same problem from the past, but by good practice and determination to work on it, they manage to enjoy either they can sometimes make money or they manage to control both time and money that they are spending while playing.

Yes, as long as they don't have good self-control, they will only continue gambling and probably only stop gambling when the money runs out. So he won't be able to stop gambling easily when he often loses control and doesn't want to learn self-control and train it. Only continuous practice can give him the opportunity to have good self-control so that he will not spend his time just gambling. He will surely see that he actually has other interesting things he can do and if he can do them one by one, it will prevent him from thinking about gambling but will instead do other things and keep himself busy with other things. So, stopping gambling depends on a person's determination and willingness to be able to go through every process he has to do.

Casino isn't all about gambling, there is also investment and job opportunity. So if someone states gambling as source of income, it can be possible that the person is working for a gambling company. But on the context of gambling as in wagering and winning as a source of income, I would also state that it is not sustainable in the long run. Although there are some people who manage to win more frequently than lose, there are way more people who lose their money in the long run.

Gambling addiction is a problem that not all would really be able to handle and eventually becomes even more worst.They would really be just making those realizations on the time that they
do struggle on a certain condition specially in correlated with financial problems.

Yes, it is difficult to overcome gambling addiction, especially if it has become a habit, it will be difficult to stop without a strong desire, not everyone thinks that people can get out and stop their addiction, it is very difficult, even a professional will have difficulty in the end to cure it. addicts, therefore gambling must be done correctly using a healthy mindset so as not to become addicted.

Usually gamblers are a bit slow to realize this after spending a lot of time gambling and having financial problems, because if that happens, there is nothing the addict can do to cure it because many people on this forum are looking to find out how to cure it and it's not easy. Even though it is easy, it must be overcome carefully by reducing the habit slowly so that it is easier to stop gambling over a long period of time.

Some say willpower is vital, while others say counseling or a support group is key. Your intellect is your biggest weapon in this struggle. Having an "aha" moment helps solve an issue. You're right - sometimes people dont seek solutions until they're involved in gambling.

Remember: changing habit is never too late. Instead of making a big change all at once, it might be better to make small changes and give a little push. Admitting you have a problem, getting help, and making little changes can improve your gambling relationship.

You don't expect such person to stop gambling. This will make him or her, to try more even when he encounters losses.

Not like that. If you decide to stop gambling, you care about yourself. If other people still want to gamble, that's up to them because we have nothing to do with them. We need to pay attention to ourselves so that if we feel that gambling only has a bad impact, stopping gambling will be better for us. We will feel the impact and not other people. And if someone advises us to stop, we can stop or continue gambling. No one will try to force someone to stop gambling because it is related to each individual's awareness and the impact gambling has on him. And gambling addiction will be the biggest problem for someone, especially if he doesn't have good self-control. He will only go deeper into gambling without being able to get out of gambling easily.
